Hosted Solutions:    Web-Based Training

Just What Exactly IS Web-Based Training

Perhaps nowhere in the world of online learning is a term used with more ambiguity than "Web-Based Training." Experts love to call anything and everything Web-based Training--so much so that the term has almost become devoid of any reliable meaning. The result is a term which must always be qualified with more jargon: synchronous, asynchronous, live, on-demand, virtual, prescriptive, object-based, etc.

Cutting Through the Clutter

At Knowledge Design Group, we have one definition of Web-Based Training:
any communication involving two or more people in which knowledge is transferred using Internet technology to facilitate instruction at any point during the learning process.
